A HIGHLY-rated Lake District restaurant has moved to a new home beneath one of the area’s best-known mountains, with a new pizzeria opening in its former premises.<\/p>\n
Fellpack, which began life as a small restaurant on Lake Road in Keswick in 2017, has moved its signature restaurant to the former Lyzzick Hall at Underskiddaw.<\/p>\n
The hotel, on the lower slopes of Skiddaw, has also been renamed Fellpack Skiddaw as part of the changes. Fellpack describes the site as having sweeping views across the surrounding fells and valleys.<\/p>\n
In the former premises at 34 Lake Road, the Fellpack team has launched an entirely new restaurant called Eight Pizza, serving a deliberately compact menu of just eight pizzas at any given time.<\/p>\n
The business says its chefs spent “countless hours” experimenting with its dough, tomato sauce and cheese blend, while toppings have been designed as modern twists on classic flavours.<\/p>\n

Ingredients are locally sourced, according to Fellpack, with homemade infused oils and sauces also used. Eight is open to walk-ins only and also offers takeaway, with food served between noon and 9pm seven days a week.<\/p>\n
The reshuffle marks the latest stage in the expansion of a business which started with a small Lake Road restaurant in June 2017.<\/p>\n
It subsequently opened burger restaurant The Round in Keswick’s Market Square in 2019, before moving into hotels. The business bought the Lyzzick site in 2025 and has now renamed it Fellpack Skiddaw.<\/p>\n
Fellpack Restaurant has built up a substantial following among Lake District locals and visitors.<\/p>\n
It currently has a 4.8 out of five rating from more than 1,400 reviews on Tripadvisor, where it is ranked among Keswick’s highest-rated restaurants.<\/p>\n
Recent reviewers have praised its food and service, with several recommending booking because of how busy it can become.<\/p>\n
At its new Fellpack Skiddaw home, the restaurant serves a seasonal menu which the business says combines familiar comfort food with more experimental flavours.<\/p>\n
Diners can also use the hotel’s bar, vinyl lounge and games room, while Sunday lunches include Cumbrian beef, braised pork shoulder and a smoked almond and apricot nut roast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
